    Our waitress was extremely accommodating and helpful. We enjoyed our meals and a a Mule drink that was delicious but not very strong on the alcohol. Our dessert, the tiiramsu, was spectacular. What we ordered was Mac and cheese, lamb gyro wrap with French fries.

    I love the big round table by the windows for bigger crowds . We were able to catch up with out of town friends and their kids. The staff were so, so nice and happy to help our friends to celebrate their 25th anniversary. Amazing experience! Great food and drink menu.

    Too loud. The performer was trying hard but in that space, unplug and let us hear ourselves think.

    Had a fabulous St. Paddy’s day weekend brunch here! The service was incredible, very kind staff, very personable and helpful. There were a lot of families dining with little children, which makes sense before a holiday, and overall i think a more kid-friendly venue, so overall busy. Food was delicious and hot!

    We had a great time listening to live music downstairs at the Social Club. Up and coming R&B performer Andrew Sue Wing and his band mates were a treat to hear. Good food and drinks, as well. We’ll be back.

    This is a great place to go with a crowd. Lots of variety on the menu and reasonably priced. Service was friendly and attentive. They did not have a record of our reservation for 8 people, even though I received multiple confirmations. Luckily it was not an issue as the restaurant wasn't crowded due to snowy weather. Drinks were great. Lighting was definitely very dim, almost too dim for my old eyes to read the menu! This was definitely a hike for our son and his friends, who all go to BU, but the walk didn't seem to bother them, and usually the green line will take you nearby (we didn't know it would be closed when we made the reservation). Food was okay, I found the fried chicken sandwich to be enormous (the chicken filet was way bigger than the bun) and the coating to be too thick and crispy for my taste. The Brussel sprouts side was delicious and we liked that they had a variety of sides to choose from that were on the healthier side.

    First time going here. Wonderful experience. Staff was incredibly friendly. Drinks and food were delicious. It was nice because I noticed that every table was having wonderful conversation … supports the atmosphere of “the” neighborhood restaurant for friends to go to. There were also parents with kids. We will definitely be back next time we visit our daughter. One of my new favorite places.
